P1000X2

The Rockford Fosgate P1000X2 from the high-performance Punch series is a high-quality 2-channel Class A/B amplifier with a total output of up to 1,000 watts RMS. Thanks to its high output power, extensive adjustment options, and robust construction, this amplifier is suitable for both high-power speaker systems and for bridged operation of a subwoofer.

The built-in Punch EQ2 tone control allows for precise adjustment of bass and treble response. Variable high-pass and low-pass filters ensure optimal tuning for the connected speakers. Thanks to the built-in high-level inputs with an automatic power-on function, the amplifier can also be integrated into vehicles equipped with a factory-installed audio system.

A solid aluminum heat sink ensures reliable heat dissipation. The clearly arranged controls under a removable cover, the integrated clip display, and comprehensive protective circuits enable precise adjustment and safe operation.
